Obituary of Robert William Larkin

Robert William Larkin, 75, passed away peacefully on Sunday, August 4th 2019 in Palm Bay, Florida. He spent the majority of his life in Florida, with a piece of his heart always residing in his home state of Michigan. Robert was a student of psychology, a veteran of the United States Air Force, a social worker and a landscaper. If you asked him what he lived for, I think he would answer that he was more importantly a father, an uncle, a brother, a husband and a grandfather. Robert was a part of a large and loving family. This includes siblings (Lynn, Tom, Lissa), children (Tina, Ryan, Michael), his granddaughter (Olivia) and a vast network of friends and family who he loved and appreciated. Robert lived a life of passion. He laughed and joked often, and as such, he smiled often. These smiles often brought one to the faces of the people he would meet. Although he has left us, that smile, passion, and his memory will live on in all of our hearts. In honor of the many animals he loved, donations may be made to the Humane Society of South Brevard. All are also encouraged to write a few words in his memory. Sharing stories and bringing his joy back to the world will allow him to live on in our hearts. He was loved and will be remembered.
